I totally agree and I'm by no means complaining about the reward system here on hubski. I'm just trying to understand it better. Yep, 2 dots for a full hubwheel. I also want to add that, despite not having been around for long, I'm really enjoying the hubski experience. Even though I started with the wrong foot and came on too strongly on my first couple of comments (thenewgreen will remember), I feel quite welcomed. I also feel a bit isolated regarding certain topics but I'm sure this will be resolved as the community grows, which I'm sure will happen sooner rather than later since there's a real unique warmth in this community nonexistent somewhere else....on many sites, points are accrued so quickly and easily that it becomes about earning points rather than submitting quality content and engaging in a meaningful way.
I would guess that you aren't too far off. Right?

Thanks for the kind words. I have enjoyed having your perspective in conversations. If there are topics that you care about but that you think lack the following here, by all means invite others to swing on by. This is how we have grown, by word of mouth. Glad you're here oA.
Thank you thenewgreen, that's kind of you. I have been trying to spread the word about hubski (in Twitter for example), but unless people are unhappy with their current social sites and looking for alternatives, they tend to ignore it. I've got to work on my persuasive skills : ) As an afterthought, I wonder how big the community is right now. It'd also be nice to see how many users are online at any one time. Any thoughts from devs?
